It could have gone to drivers/iio/accel if it would use an iio interface, which would make more sense, you are right, but I simply don't have the time to merge it in to iio. It doesn't use an input interface either but I don't see a good place for an accelerometer that uses sysfs only. It works well, is a relatively recent chip and a clean dirver. But this is all I can provide. > Best regards, > Alexander > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
